Check out these fantastic children's chairs and tables from Little Nest! They are inspired by classic 20th century designs (you will recognize most of them) and they are simply gorgeous. If you are after a real statement piece for your child's room or play room, this is the site for you. The best thing about going with pieces like these? They're classics- they don't go out of style. They are available in Australia and the US. The Yolk is my favourite- what's yours?

Some of you may remember back in November Shop 4 Kids did a shoot using my son Jake for their regular feature "In My Closet". I'm thrilled to say that the issue came out yesterday and the photos are sensational. He, of course, now thinks he's famous and is trying to convince his sister and I to wait on him hand and foot, but that's not going to happen. Even Maddox Jolie-Pitt has to do his homework. For those of you who are not familiar with Shop 4 Kids, it's the children's version of Shop til you Drop, and is full of drool worthy clothes for babies and kids, as well as toys and decor products. It will be on the shelves for the next 6 months or so, so if you are in a newsagency pick up a copy. Meanwhile, let's hope it doesn't go to Jake's head....

This lovely wall art is brought to you by Pipsqueek. Jayne Davis makes custom artwork for kid's rooms- and very cute it is, too. She uses a combination of elements including felt, ribbon, lace, buttons and fabric, and she will work with you to make something to fit into your existing theme or help you create a theme to build your room design around. You can see a selection of her work on her Facebook page or buy it online at madeit.com.au/pipsqueek. She will also be at the Norwood Market for Child and Baby in SA from April. You will need to allow around 5 weeks for an original creation, or she can make a reproduction of one of her existing pieces in around 3 weeks. Well worth checking out. Thanks for sharing this with us Jayne!
